Welcome to my Warhammer 40K blog about Chaos Daemons, and specifically Tzeentch, the chaos god of change. Also discussed will be my drivelings and scribblings on myriad topics including rumors, my thoughts about competitive gaming, podcasts I like, my other chaotic 40K army (Space Wolves) and my new Warhammer Fantasy army (Ogres).

Character Nonsense or The Expendables II

I was going to post this article back before the recent 40K BRB FAQ:

"If you can't tell by the title I think that the new Character rules have a bit of nonsense thrown in that makes them laughable at times. However, let me start by saying that I generally like the new Character rules with these exceptions:

Characters taking Look Out Sir! saves for other Characters

Being able to Look Out Sir! a Precision Shot with the same ease as a normal shot

Monstrous Creatures being stuck in a duel with a Character

Other than that, I think the concept is great, even if some of the mechanics slow the game down a little right now."

Evidently, I was right on account of #1. #2 is less of an issue due to the reduction in number of characters that make precision shots.
